With nearly 14 years at Tucson Subaru and 10 Subarus of my own, I’ve seen firsthand how these vehicles can truly change lives—one even saved my family’s. Living in the desert since 1998 has fueled my love for adventure, and Subaru’s safety and capability have always given me the confidence to explore further. I look forward to sharing that experience with you and helping you find the Subaru that’s the perfect fit for your life and adventures.

I came to Subaru to buy a used Honda CR-V I first saw online I came to Tucson Subaru to look at a used 2006 Honda CR-V EX. I first saw the vehicle on their website and after giving my contact information online, I came to Tucson Subaru to look at a used 2006 Honda CR-V EX. I first saw the vehicle on their website and after giving my contact information online, was quickly contacted. After test driving the vehicle I made an offer for the car through email with the dealer I was working with. They accepted my offer right away. The negotiation process went very well. The dealer I worked with was very helpful when I test drove the car and through the purchasing process. Although I do believe the car was originally too highly priced for the age and condition of the vehicle. More

A Rare Gem in the Dark World of Car Dealers I'm in my 60's. I've purchased more than a dozen cars. Most of those purchases have been from dealerships. I could count the number of those experienc I'm in my 60's. I've purchased more than a dozen cars. Most of those purchases have been from dealerships. I could count the number of those experiences that could be characterized as "not unpleasant" on one hand that was missing most of its fingers. One of those was at a dealer that was owned by a friend of mine. The other was my recent purchase of a 2015 Subaru Forester XT from Tucson Subaru. The vast majority of car dealers leave their customers feeling like they've been beaten up by the car buying experience. This was how I felt after dealing with a Tucson Mazda dealer a few days before purchasing my Subaru. The other dealer's staff projected an image of wanting to squeeze as much money out of me as they possibly could. They offered me far less than a fair price for my trade-in. Even though I had used the Costco Buyers Program (highly recommended) to obtain assured pricing, the Mazda store kept trying to add additional costs. The methods they used in providing the prices they offered me were far from transparent. The sales people I dealt with knew far less about the car I was interested in than I did. The experience at Tucson Subaru was the exact opposite. CJ Nichols, Tim Hanson, and everyone else I encountered seemed genuinely interested in making sure I was happy with the deal they were offering and the buying experience at their store. CJ Nichols offered comprehensive knowledge of the car I was interested in. I'm a "car guy" so I did my homework and I thought I knew a lot about the Forester XT. CJ knew much more, and he was always ready to demonstrate his knowledge. When the deal was done and the car was being delivered, he even helped program some of the Forester's hands-free features so I could use them right away. As we were leaving he presented my wife with a dozen beautiful red roses. Nice touch! I will have no hesitation about strongly recommending Tucson Subaru to anyone I know who is looking for a vehicle. They are truly a class act in a business where most dealerships can be rated by what I call their Slimeball Factor. More

If you want customer service. CJ is the definition of customer service. We have had only one better car shopping experience and that was where the sales manager was a good friend.

We looked at the Forester, but decided the Outback better suited our needs. It's a great car. Can't wait for a long trip to San Diego in this car. We first looked at the cars via the internet and got connected to CJ Nichols. What a great guy! Very knowledgeable, easy to work with and forthright about the car features to help us with our decision on the Outback. More
